What guests say
8.4 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 646 guest reviews
Franklin Guesthouse earns consistent praise for its prime Greenpoint location, spacious apartment-style rooms, and well-equipped kitchenettes that make it particularly appealing for longer stays — but the experience can vary sharply depending on which room guests are assigned, with lower-floor rooms suffering from poor natural light and noise from floors above or neighbouring rooms being a recurring frustration. Those who land a good room on a higher floor tend to leave very satisfied, while guests in darker or noisier rooms feel the value proposition is harder to justify.
